ORIGINAL ARTWORKS-ACRYLIC ON CANVAS
"Reverie"
Acrylic on Canvas
To live every moment in awe of the opportunities, the people and the blessings around us, is where I would like to stay. The reverie found in the face of this little fox is a reminder to me of wonderful life truly is, and to be grateful for every moment I spend on this beautiful planet.

"Elegance"
Acrylic on Canvas
Herons have always been a favorite subject of mine. I don't know if it's their similarity to the crane and their elegance, or their almost dinosaur like appearance. To experience one of these magnificent creatures in the wild is truly a pleasure.

"Solomon"
Acrylic on Canvas
Lions are used globally to symbolize so many noble traits, and upon seeing one in person, it's evident why they are.
For me the Lion symbolizes not only strength, courage, power and nobility, but also great leadership. Leadership that comes with it Wisdom, Compassion, Joy and Love. Leadership not only amongst its pack, but leadership over oneself above all else.
Even King Solomon, said to be the wisest of men, could see where others could best take action or make changes, yet in his own life, he lacked execution of this wisdom.
This Lion is a reminder to me, that while wisdom is valuable, it is only of use to us if we take action.

"Resplendent"
Acrylic on Canvas
“The feeling to create,
something from nothing,
An idea, a vision,
to life i will bring.
With contrast and light,
I see colors shimmering.
this creature I see,
has not two, but four wings.”

"Distinguished"
Acrylic On Canvas
I believe Hummingbirds to be one of the many wonders of the world around us. Somehow almost half bird and half bug yet every bit amazing! It's not often we get to enjoy one of these birds up-close so I chose to bring this one to life at four feet tall. Every bit of this bird is amazing and deserves to be admired as such!

"Glory"
Acrylic on Canvas
Birds have been used as my art subjects for decades. My earliest drawings were herons and blue jays. I continue to admire birds in all their glory to this day. Could not resist painting one of the most glorious birds, the Peacock.

After finishing my collection of the 3 Goddesses, one in each of the secondary colors, I wanted to bring these colors together in and abstract yet flowing and interesting manner.

This painting was a challenge to myself, one of creating something soft, something that transitioned from bright, to almost disappearing into the background. This one was enjoyable, and I look forward to playing with fire again in the future. I've always been somewhat of a pyromaniac.

My Art
Why Fingerprints?
Why Fingerprints?
In the past my subject choice had been wildlife, on slabs of wood, to bring another love of mine into my work.
This too gave me a sense of uniqueness, trying things in a seldom explored style. More recently a shift in mindset led me to try newer things with m style.

Why Fingerprints?
As you can see, a good number of my pieces consist of an arrangement of fingerprints. This idea first came to me when conceiving a way to include hundreds of people in the creation of one piece. My process allows for a "paint by number" style with a more personal, almost emotional contribution to the canvas.
